Currently, right axillary artery cannulation and unilateral antegrade cerebral perfusion through the same cannula are preferred choices for acute type A aortic dissection repair. However, the existence of an aberrant right subclavian artery can jeopardize cerebral perfusion through the right axillary artery cannula. In this study, we intended to explain the repair of acute type A aortic dissection using right axillary artery cannulation in a patient with aberrant right subclavian artery.

Rare bilateral vascular variations of the upper limb: a cadaveric case study.
J Cardiothorac Surg

Arterial variations in the upper limb are of significant clinical importance, especially in procedures such as venepunctures, coronary artery bypass grafts, trauma reconstructive surgeries, brachial plexus nerve blocks, and breast reconstructions. This report presents previously undocumented arterial variations in the upper limbs in a 95-year-old female cadaveric donor. We observed bilateral superficial ulnar arteries originating at the cubital fossa, deviating from the previously reported origin at the proximal brachial artery.

In this study, we developed and validated a hybrid quantitative model for simulating upper extremity junctional hemorrhage in swine, aiming to advance the development of pre-hospital hemostatic products. Utilizing 12 healthy 8-month-old male Yorkshire swine, we demonstrated the feasibility of a swine axillary artery injury model for evaluating hemostatic efficacy. Animals were divided into three groups to undergo volume-controlled hemorrhage (VCH), mimicking Class I-III hemorrhagic shock by withdrawing blood at different rates.

Takayasu arteritis (TA) is a form of large vessel vasculitis that may lead to fibrosis, stenosis, or aneurysm formation of vessels. Its presentation varies depending on the arterial beds involved. We report 3 cases out of around 150 cases of TA with rare initial presentations of brachial plexopathy caused by an axillary artery aneurysm, complicated type A intramural hematoma, and renal artery aneurysms along with abdominothoracic TA presenting as a pulsatile abdominal mass.

Porcelain aorta describes circumferential calcification in the ascending aorta that may extend through the aortic arch. This is commonly observed in patients with a history of mediastinal radiation, end-stage renal disease, or chronic vascular inflammation. Mediastinal radiation has been shown to cause intimal and medial calcification of the aorta, as well as diastolic myocardial dysfunction, valvular disease, and coronary artery disease.

Objectives: To determine if the subtype of vascular ultrasound (US) presentation is associated with different types of ischaemic complications (IC) in giant cell arteritis (GCA).
Methods: Retrospective observational analysis of GCA clinically confirmed patients referred to US fast-track clinics at two centres. All patients underwent baseline US of cranial and extracranial arteries (carotid, subclavian and axillary).
